"Keep It Quiet!" joke

A man, desperately in need of a job, decides to apply at the zoo. As luck would have it, their star attraction, a gorilla, had passed away the night before and they had carefully preserved his hide. They tell the guy that he would be well paid if he would dress up in the gorilla's skin and pretend to be the gorilla, so people will continue coming to the zoo.
He was feeling pretty skeptical about the whole situation, but in need of money, so he puts on the skin and goes out into the cage. The crowd cheers when they see him. He plays up to the audience and they just eat it up. Deciding this isn't so bad after all, he starts to really put on a show, jumping around, beating his chest and roaring, swinging around.
Unfortunately, during one acrobatic attempt, he loses his balance and falls through some netting, landing square in the middle of the lion's cage! As he lies there stunned, the lion roars. He's terrified and starts screaming, "Help, Help, Help!"
The lion quickly races over to him, places his paws on his chest and hisses, "Shut up or we'll BOTH lose our jobs!"
